Bai Shui followed the scout's words and chased all the way down the trails left by the officers and soldiers as they walked. After chasing for thirty miles, there was still no sign of the officers and soldiers, and he ordered everyone to rest in place.

He found a big rock, sat down, took the gourd from his waist, opened it and poured a large mouthful of water.

"If you chase it again, you will enter the territory of Zhuo County, tnd, these officers and soldiers are really going towards Qu Shuai, but fortunately they didn't listen to Gao You's coward."

Bai Shui had already begun to fantasize about Cheng Yuanzhi's army, and he was frightened by the sudden appearance of the officers and soldiers, and he himself descended from the sky, appeared behind the officers and soldiers, defeated the officers and soldiers, and was regarded as a hero by everyone.

It is even possible that Cheng Yuanzhi was killed in the chaos, and then everyone regarded themselves as the backbone and became the new commander himself.

Thinking about it, the corners of Bai Shui's mouth began to turn up, and he laughed unconsciously.

Everyone else didn't know why, saying that they came out to pursue the officers and soldiers, but after chasing them for so long, they didn't even see a shadow, everyone was tired and half dead, and Xiaoshuai could still laugh.

Five miles away, Zhang Hao led the army and waited here for almost two hours.

Qin Wen next to him had been fidgeting and a little impatient: "General, did you say that the thief army in this city will really chase them out?" ”

Zhang Hao was leisurely, looking indifferent: "It doesn't matter if he comes out or not, it's best if he comes out, we can just solve them in the wild." If we don't come out, it doesn't matter, we will really go to Zhuojun and find trouble with Cheng Yuanzhi. ”

After listening to Zhang Hao's words, Qin Wen still felt uneasy, and wanted to say something more, Zhang Hao patted him on the shoulder: "Peace of mind, don't mess up, this battle has always been to do one's best and obey the destiny of heaven."

We waited here for a day, and after a day the thieves didn't come, so we set off. ”

As soon as Zhang Hao finished speaking, a scout ran back.

"Report! General Qiyu, the thief army in Guangyang City caught up, there were about two thousand people, and now it is less than five miles according to this. ”

"Hahaha, what I just said, so we don't have to care too much about the result, we have made all the preparations we should make, and the result should not be bad."

Qin Wen also said with a smile: "The last general will bow down." ”

Zhang Hao stood up and said to Qin Wen: "General Qin, since the thief army has come out, then you will lead the cavalry to defeat them."

I arrived with the rest of the men. ”

Qin Wen was overjoyed, this place was a smooth road, and it was the most suitable for cavalry to fight, and now there were 1,000 cavalry in the army, and it was definitely easy to deal with a mere 2,000 thief army.

"No, the last general will take the order."

It's almost time to rest, and it's time to get up and move.

……

After a pillar of incense, Bai Shui also took his subordinates back on the road.

But he hadn't gone far before he saw a large amount of dust in front of him, and then the ground began to tremble.

"Is there a situation?"

Bai Shui himself lay on the ground, his ears on the ground, carefully listening to the movement in the distance.

"Is it cavalry?" It suddenly occurred to him that among the officers and soldiers he was pursuing, there were quite a few cavalry.

Suddenly, cold sweat slowly flowed down his forehead. He suddenly thought of the fact that these people he had brought with him were no match for these officers and soldiers.

Even if he took all the people in the city with him, he would still be invincible.

This is different from what I thought, aren't the officers and soldiers going to Zhuojun, and what are they going to do?

He didn't have time to react, and the people standing in front had already seen the galloping cavalry.

"It's cavalry!" Someone shouted in horror.

Bai Shui shouted: "Don't panic, line up quickly!" It's just that no matter how much he shouts, it won't help.

The cavalry rushed to the peak, which could make the onlookers feel the majestic momentum and rise with pride in their hearts.

But it can also put the person facing it under tremendous pressure and infinite fear in the heart.

Less than four-fifths of the people stood together, and the others all threw down their weapons and fled. This behavior puts more psychological pressure on those who stay.

Qin Wen did not hesitate at all, and the moment he saw the yellow scarf, he immediately ordered to speed up and rushed over.

"Kill!"

Arrows were constantly being fired from the Yellow Turbans' array, but few of them hit.

The moment the two sides came into contact, there was immediately a burst of people turning on their backs.

Qin Wen led the people to keep slashing and slashing, and with the help of speed, he rushed out of the Yellow Turban Army's array at once.

This charge alone, with hundreds of corpses lying on the ground. Most of them belonged to the Yellow Turbans, with only a few horses standing alone.

In addition to the dead, many of the Yellow Turbans were wounded, and the wails were endless.

Soon, the cavalry turned their horses, and Qin Wen gave an order and rushed towards the Yellow Turban Army again.

This time, there were fewer people left to resist, and some people could not bear the fear of death and fled.

And this time, the Yellow Turban Army was directly dispersed in formation, and Bai Shui, who was hiding in the formation, was cut off by Qin Wen with a knife.

The Lord was about to die, and the rest of the people stopped resisting, either fleeing or surrendering.

Qin Wen ordered people to clean up the battlefield, and sent people to capture all the golden soldiers who had not run far away.

When Zhang Hao arrived with his people, Qin Wen reported the situation of the battle to Zhang Hao.

"Our army has beheaded 300 people this time, captured 1,500 people, and in addition, the leader of the thief army has already been awarded the head, and the head is here."

After speaking, Qin Wen handed Zhang Hao a head.

Zhang Hao nodded: "Take this with you, let's go back to Guangyang County." ”

……

In the evening, Zhang Hao led the army back to the outside of Guangyang City.

Zhang Hao asked the herald to step forward and shouted at the city.

"Listen to the yellow turbans in the city, the 2,000 men you sent out have been wiped out, and the head of the leader is here. The general of my family, Nian Zai, was originally a hard-working people, and he was willing to give you a chance.

Now surrender the city immediately, but Paul and the rest of his life, if he fights against the heavenly soldiers, he will be killed and enter the city, and no yellow scarves will be left! You only have half an hour to consider, and after half an hour, don't say anything unpredictable. ”

After speaking, Tian Jian threw Bai Shui's head under the city. Turn around and go back to the line.

After listening to the city, Gao You said to his subordinates: "Go and pick up that head." ”

After the subordinates came back, everyone confirmed that it was indeed the head of Baishui.

"Vice Admiral Gao, how good is this, Xiao Shuai is dead, and the two thousand brothers who went with him have all been wiped out. The brothers in the city alone will not be able to defend the city. ”

"How is it good?"

Seeing that all the subordinates were pessimistic and did not have the courage to fight to the death with the officers and soldiers, Gao You also sighed helplessly, thinking: Bai Shui misunderstood me.

In fact, he knew that even if these officers and soldiers appeared behind Cheng Yuanzhi, it would not have any impact on the army, at most it would stop the offensive.

It's just that Bai Shui has been asking for war these days, but he can't get his permission, so he is angry and turns against himself.

hated himself for thinking of love and righteousness, and did not take him down on the spot, so that today's disaster occurred.

"Alright, stop arguing!" Gao You shouted loudly, and everyone was shocked and quieted down.

He looked at everyone around him and said slowly: "The city is too big, the number of brothers is too small, and we are not sure to prevent the officers and soldiers from breaking through the city. For the sake of my brothers' lives, I decided to surrender the city. ”

After Gao You finished speaking, everyone expressed different opinions for a while, some were silent, some opened their mouths in agreement, and some reprimanded him angrily.

"Gao You! You ungrateful, Qu Shuai treats you well, promotes you to be his lieutenant, and gives you the important task of defending the city.

But you actually want to sacrifice the city to the officers and soldiers in order to make a living, and we will never agree. Everyone will join me in killing this traitor who is greedy for life and afraid of death. ”

It's a pity that there are very few people who respond to him.

Gao You sighed, secretly scolding this fool in his heart, the enemy is still thinking about infighting at the moment. Even if you don't agree, you should first think of a way to let others live, if there is nothing, who will support you.

Now that it has been clarified, Gao You will not be polite to him. Pick up the weapon and kill him directly.

This also made the others frightened, and they looked at Gao You in amazement.

"Everyone rebelled and rebelled, but also to fight for a way to survive, and now surrender has a way to live. This idiot was bent on death, and he wanted to drag everyone to die together, so I had to send him on his way first. ”

Gao You said calmly, and after being silent for a long time, everyone said in unison: "Vice General Gao is wise, and I am willing to follow Vice General Gao." ”

"In that case, let's surrender Kaesong."

In less than half an hour, the city gate of Guangyang County was opened.

A group of leaders were tied up by their own men, escorted out of the city gate, came to Zhang Hao, and knelt down to surrender.

"The grass people are high, and they led the crowd to ask the general to surrender, and asked the general to spare our lives."

Zhang Hao drove Xiaobai forward, and it walked to Gao You's body and stopped, the horse's hooves were only an inch away from Gao You's low head, and he snorted heavily at him.

Looking at the horse's hooves in front of him and feeling the heat coming from the top of his head, Gao You's heart was full of humiliation, and he wanted to stand up and fight with Zhang Hao.

But from the moment he knelt down, the courage to fight to the death had disappeared, and now he just wanted to live in the world.

At this time, a pair of fiery hands grabbed his shoulders and helped him up, it was Zhang Hao.

"You're the guard?" Zhang Hao looked at him and said, but Gao You only glanced up at him, and then lowered his head again.

"Exactly."

"Very good, you made the right decision, and you saved thousands of lives by sacrificing the city," Zhang Hao patted him on the shoulder and said, "But you have been a thief before, and you have also harmed many innocent people." ”

"These merits and demerits are two different things, and they cannot be compensated."

Gao You's head lowered deeper: "Please punish the general." ”

Zhang Hao nodded: "Well, then I will give you a chance to atone for your sins, you select young people from the city and those yellow turbans that I captured, and then I will integrate you into our army and go south with me." ”

Gao You raised his head suddenly and looked at Zhang Hao with some surprise.

Zhang Hao looked at him calmly: "Why, can't you do anything to the old master." ”

Gao You thought about it for a long time, and seemed to be struggling in his heart, but finally made up his mind: "I am willing to obey the general's order." ”

"Good." Zhang Hao saw that he agreed, so he personally untied him, "Let's go, follow me into the city." ”

Afterwards, Gao You reduced his original subordinates to more than 500 people, and Zhang Hao ordered him to lead these people. By this time his army had risen to four thousand, a third more than when he arrived.

Qin Wen asked why Zhang Hao wanted to use these traitors, in case of a battle with other thieves in the future, these people would defect, it would be all over.

Zhang Hao said: "Next, we have to fight with the two combined Yellow Turban forces of Guangyang County and Zhuo County, and we need to fight with a lot of people. After all, these people have been on the battlefield and are much better than some recruits.

Besides, I don't think they will defect on the verge of defeat, that Gao You is a smart man, since he has already surrendered to us, even if the time comes, others will not believe him, and even kill such a repeated villain. ”

After listening to Qin Wen, he didn't say anything anymore.

At this point, Zhang Hao recovered the entire territory of Guangyang and prepared to march to Zhuo County.
